Review of the previous edition:"The authors have demonstrated much effort in putting pathology into the context of clinical medicine through clinical cases and self-assessment questions. The book will without a doubt make learning much more interesting. In summary, I would highly recommend this book to all medical students." --Anamarija Perry, MD (University of Michigan Medical School) Doody's Review Score: 92-4 Stars!
